Serial killer who was spared execution is killed in prison
2021-03-02
[10News] A California serial killer known as the "I-5 Strangler" in the 1970s and 1980s has been killed in prison.

State correctional officials said Monday that a correctional officer spotted 81-year-old Roger Reece Kibbe unresponsive in his cell at Mule Creek State Prison after midnight Sunday.

His cellmate was standing nearby. Kibbe was initially convicted in 1991 of strangling a 17-year-old who had run away from home in Seattle.

Investigators at the time said Kibbe was also a suspect in six other killings. In 2009, a San Joaquin County District Attorney’s Office investigator used new developments to connect him to the old slayings.

I already hear the Cellmates possible defense.
"We were have erotic asphyxiation sex and it went wrong."

Given their Criminal History its possible a jury could buy into it.

Then get President Harris to pardon him and get him a Security Job in Congress. ☺
